GCC has optimized strncmp to strcmp, but at a stage where macros are no
longer available. I think the right fix is to use strcmp directly,
since strncmp doesn't make sense here.
Hi Andreas,
I don't see that all of these string compare fields are null-terminated.
Some of the strncmp calls in ldm.c are null-terminated, some are not.
That would imply that the compiler will emit both strcmp and strncmp
calls.
A strncmp call isn't a problem, because m68k doesn't define
__HAVE_ARCH_STRNCMP and so the one from lib/string.c gets built.
How does one convert strncmp() users to strcmp()?
thanks,
The untested patch below may work. It seems that it may be relevant to
both arc and m68k:
I got back to looking at the build errors. I agree with Andreas that
all of the fields in question are null-terminated, so Finn's patch looks
good to me.
